The Frye Company has been making all-American boots and leather goods since 1863, carrying on the history and heritage of the brand for more than 150 years. The custom boots that they created for a number of high-profile figures in the 1960’s have made the brand more iconic than ever before, affording them the opportunity to explore ways to bring comfort and durability to other types of footwear.

Case in point, the Frye Ryan Lug Hiker is a high-top sneaker with styling borrowed from rugged hiker boots. Think of it as a more winter appropriate version of Frye’s Ryan line of sneakers, so you can have the best of both worlds. The casual cold-weather high-top is made with tumbled full grain Italian leather, sturdy lug sole, and interchangeable lace options that add to the character.
